“It has completely revived my studio monitors and made me want to listen to all the music I love again. It is really a game changer for video editors and people who work with audio.”
“This Sonarworks SoundID reference tool is indispensable. I have a partially treated room and my monitors sounded decent (Focal EVO 50s), but after going through the calibration and hearing the results, the difference was not only immediately apparent, it was something I would never want to go back from. The pleasant coloration on the monitors went unnoticed, and I didn't realize how much of that coloration was blurring parts of the sonic spectrum - parts that I unknowingly wasn't hearing during mixing. Once the coloration was removed, I felt like I had a brand new pair of reference monitors that were twice the price and I could now hear those pockets of frequencies that were not audible before. The purchasing process was straightforward and simple.”
“Having compared all the other cost effective solutions out there, Sonarworks SoundID Reference is the single best option for it's price range.
Tuning your room "properly" will cost far more than SoundID Reference. Get it for now and start making mixes that translate.”
“Hi. After a good acoustic treatment of my room, i bought SoundID Reference for my speakers in order to calibrate them. I am so glad of the result. With the acoustic treatment and this calibration, my system works so much better for creation, mixing and audio comfort.
With a RME Fireface UFX 2, i can put the clibration on Total Mix Room Eq and the RME DSP does the job for no latency charges on my computer.
I recommend this solution, with a good acoustic treatment !”
“I achieve significantly better results with calibration and proper acoustic treatment. It's a pleasure to turn on the software for both mixing and mastering, as well as simply enjoying music.”
“Since I use SoundID reference I don’t need to check my mixes in the car anymore. It translates perfectly to any system. Although you can bug a dedicated measurement mic I used my own Beyer Dynamic mm1 but only because I had the calibraton file. Otherwise a sonarworks measurement mic seems like a great value for money piece of gear.”
